If you need a quick weeknight dinner that’s guaranteed to impress then this Moroccan lamb burger flatbread recipe is what you need!

We really like having lamb mince on hand. It makes a really nice change from beef and it can be pretty versatile.

Ingredients you need for these Moroccan lamb burger flatbreads:

Lamb Mince (Ground Lamb) – Easy to get hold of and give these burgers an amazing flavour!

Fresh Mint – One of my all time favourite herbs 😍

Cumin and Aleppo Pepper – For that spicy flavour

Garlic

Red Onion

Salt, Pepper and Vegetable Oil

Yellow Pepper and Red Onion – To up the veg content and give some beautiful colour!

Greek Yoghurt, Chilli Paste and Garlic – Simply mixed together to make the most amazing chilli yoghurt

Flatbreads, Feta and Fresh Coriander to serve

Burgers and meatballs are some of my favourite things to do with lamb mince because they’re easy, tasty and you can do so many different things with them.

Lamb is used a lot in Greek and Moroccan food so that it can really shine. Just like in this Greek lamb burger recipe the addition of feta and roasted vegetables really accentuates the flavour of the meat.

If you’re eating these in the summer then sling them on the barbecue and they’ll come out fantastic.

We decided to do a similar thing with these Moroccan lamb burger flatbreads. The meat is flavoured with one of our favourite spices, aleppo pepper, along with cumin and some garlic, red onion and fresh mint.

We’re lucky enough to have a nearby shop that stocks aleppo pepper but if you can’t find it anywhere then you can order some right here:

The burgers are then fried in a hot skillet to get all nice and crispy on the outside before stuffing into flatbreads with some roasted vegetables. Topped with some crumbled feta, chilli yoghurt and a big handful of fresh coriander (cilantro). Oooooh yeah.

To Serve

Instructions

Mix the lamb, mint, cumin, aleppo pepper, garlic, red onion and a sprinkling of salt and pepper together in a bowl. Form into four patties. Heat a drizzle of vegetable oil in a frying pan over a high heat. Cook the burgers for 5-7 minutes on both sides then place on a plate and keep warm.

Place the sliced pepper and onion on a baking tray and mix with the olive oil along with a little salt and pepper. Place in the oven for 30 mins.

Meanwhile mix together the yoghurt, chilli paste and one crushed garlic clove. Stuff each flatbread with a quarter of the vegetables and feta, a burger, coriander leaves and a scoop of yoghurt.
